MEETING OF THE COUNTY
BOARD MONDAY AND
TUESDAY.

The result of the meeting of County
Supervisors on Monday in making
choice of County Treasurer was as
generally predicted it would be. F.
G. Head was elected by the unanimous
vote. We do not care to discuss the
matter further at this time, but on re-
view Of the past we see nothing to
take back that has been said editorially
in the TELEGRAPH. The excitement
will probably be productive of better
understanding of our county affairs
and the manner of their conduction
The question will 60 before the people.
1t is said that some members of the
Board claim that the people sustain
them In their action. The answer to
that will be more intelligently under
stood after the spring elections in the
county. The proposition is a fair one,
and to which there can be no reason
able objection. If the people sanction
the course taken by the Board, let them
signify their endorsement by re-elect-
ing them to office at the April election
This will be fair, and will settle the
question as to the kind of policy the
people of the county desire to have
adopted.
Prior to proceeding to the election of
treasurer on Monday Hon. z. G. Sim
mons appeared before the Board, and
was given leave to present the claims
of Union soldiers for the favorable con-
sideration of the Board. Mr.. Simmons
spoke at considerable length. Portions
of his speech were impressive and well
calculated to influence those who have
sympathy for the war sufferers.
After finishing the business of elect
ing a County Treasurer, the Board pro-
ceeded to do what they had intended
to do on the 14th of January, but
which had been declared void. A lit
tie too much haste to accomplish a
given purpose had led to some mistakes.
They did not heed Davy Crocket's text,
" first be sure you are right, then go
ahead"

MILLIONAIRE SENATORS.

A Washington correspondent of the
Chicago Journal speaks of millionaire
Senators who attend DR.. John ?. New
mans Metropolitan Methodist church
in Washington. There is quite con-
trast between the millionaire Senator
Stanford, from California, and the mil
lionaire Senator Sawyer. from Wiscon-
sin. The correspondent says:
Gin three seats, one behind another,
sit three of the wealthy Senators, prob
ably the three wealthiest-Stanford,
Sawyer and Miller. They are very
regular in their attendance. too. Every
Sunday morning, about five or ten
minutes before the chimes of old Met
ropolitan indicate the beginning of the
service within, heavy English car
riage with seats for four is drawn up
in front of the church by a pair of
very large and handsome black horses.
The two men on the box are as thor
oughly matched as the horses, smooth
ed faced. solid looking Englishmen,
with high hats and Grape bands. The
footman jumps nimbly down and
opens the door of the carriage; a big
Droad-shouldered man of 60, with full
brown greyish beard, gels out, and
gives his hand to a rather stout, rather
large-featured matron They are dress
ed well, of course, but not in a manner
to attract any more attention than as
though they were citizens of an aver
age financial condition. Everybody
nudges his neighbor as they pass, and
says, =" Senator Stanford and his wife"
By the time they get comfortably seat
ed, you see a short, white-haired man,
rolling down the aisle with walk like
3 sailor, a fringe of white beard around
his chin, smoothly shaven upper lip
and bald. He is usually accompanied
by middle-aged lady, quietly attired.
The people in the church nudge their
neighbOrs again and say. "Senator
Sawyer and his daughter, Mrs. White.
Mr.. Sawyer generally whispers to the
usher directly after he gets his seat,
and pretty soon you see the usher bring
some stranger ans give him a place in
the millionaire Senator's pew"
Mrs. Sawyer is confirmed invalid
and does not attend church.

NEW PENSION LAW.

The new pension law provides that
any person who served three months
in the service of the United States in
any war in which the United States
was engaged, and who was honorably
discharged therefrom, and who is suf-
fering from mental or physical dis
ability, not from bad habits, but un-
able to earn his support. shall, on prop
er proof, be entitled to a pension of
twelve dollars per month. Such in
substance are the provisions of the
new law, without giving full details.
This will involve an expenditure of
many millions annually. If the sur
plus in the national treasury is to be
expended, it had better go for the bene-
At Of surviving soldiers than other
ways proposed, not excepting the edu-
cation of the ignorant masses of the
population in many of the states.

Whitewater, a city of considerable
less population than this, now enjoys
the electric light. The Register of that
city describes it's introduction the first
night as follows:
about dark a dreary rain set in,
but this did not prevent gathering of
people near each of the ten lamps to
witness their first illumination.
Promptly on time the connection was
made, and the mysterious current in
stantly turned the dull-colored carbon
points into fountains of the fullest and
intensest radiance. A hearty shout
greeted each light as it blazed out, and
the crowds waiting long enough to see
that the lights had came to stay hasten
ed to find shelter from the rain"
1t has been a long time since crowd
in this city has tested its voice at cheer
ing over the cOnsummation of public
enterprise, but give us the electric light,
and the shouting of applause will be
heard afar off.

HON. JOHN F. POTTER.

Rhe newspapers have brought Hon.
John F. Potter from his quiet retire
ment in private life into public notice
So sequestered has been the life of that
gentleman for a number of years past
that many of his former friends hard
ly knew he was still in the ranks Of
the living. He has been quietly and
noiselessly keeping away from public
notoriety, on his farm in East Troy,
Walworth county, Wis. Citizens of
this county who were residents here
twenty-five years ago must have a
vivid recollection Of Congressman
John F. Potter. He was one of the
most distinguished members of Con-
gIesS ever sent from this state. not be-
cause his brilliancy Of talent outshone
all others, but for the reason of events
in his history, which gave him a name
North and South. One of the events,
and perhaps the chief, was his confront
ing one of the Southern chivalry and
putting his courage to the test. The
story Of his meeting Hon. Roger A
Pryor has been so often told it need
not be repeated. After this affair
Pryor seems to have abandoned his
code Of honor" notions. He left the
Sunny South and established law Of.
flee in New York city, where it is re-
ported he has been doing business of
twenty thousand dollars year. Pot
ter represented this first Congression-
al district three times, being elected in
1851, 1859 and 1861, there being at
that time only three districts in the
state, He was a forcible and logical
speaker, as all can attest who heard
him here. He was drawn from his
present retreat by recent attempt to
have his picture taken to accompany a
history of his life, but he refused to be
brought into notoriety. saying he was
slowly but surely sinking below the
horizon, soon to disappear forever !;
and that after the closing drama of
life his history would be free to all
who choose to make mention of it.

to war. The voice of those in author.
ity in both governments is for peace
and the amicable adjustment of all
points of dispute by peaceable meas
ures. The clustering of Canada over
the fishery question is of no great con
sequence. Canada does not voice the
sentiment of England; it is but little
more than colonial dependency, and
cannot declare war or conclude peace
between the proper parties to the Ash
cry dispute. Those men who talk OF
the advantages to be gained by a war
do not realize the fearful calamities
war involves. 1t is now about quar-
ter of a century since the last war in
this country, yet the habiliments of
mourning have hardly yet been all laid
aside. Many a fathers and mothers
heart is still wrung with anguish at
the loss of a beloved son, and hundreds
of widows yet feel keenly the bereaye-
ment of husbands. The misery which
protract d war brings upon people
of country is incalculable. It may
be remarked, as a general rule, that the
men who are the most loud-voiced for
war, and talk the most courageousl,
are after all the greatest towards when
brought to the test. They are willing
their neighbors should go into the
fight, and take the chances of being
killed or wounded, but as for them
selves they choose to stand back when
the enemy approaches. And if it
should SO happen that a draft for sol
diers should be found necessary, many
of the noisy advocates for war would
be the FIRST ones to run and hide away,
In this enlightened age of civilization
it is folly to keep the probability OF
war between this patton and foreign
powersO much before the people, since
it is the moral sentiment of our best
and wisest men that the securement OF
the rights and nations can be obtained
by the peaceable means of arbitration

the vacant rooms. The surprise scene
the first quarter of an hour isnot easily
described. The ladies of the party, as
a token Of their esteem, presented Mr..
Hinsdale with a large silk umbrella.
Mr.. J. Bond, as their representative,
with fitting remarks made the presen-
tation, to which Mr.. Hinsdale appro-
priately and feelingly responded. The
surprise party was invited to an ele-
CANT collation..

A SURPRISE PARTY.

Mr.. H. B. Hinsdale, one of our old
and highly-respected citizens, reached
his S0th birthday on Wednesday, the
9th inst. Some of his friends planned
a surprise party to visit him on We'd
nesday night. The affair was admir-
ably arranged. About thirty ladies
and gentlemen, nearly all neighbors of
Mr.. Blnsdale, assembled at the resi-
dence of ]. Bond, Esq, on the avenue.
At eight o'clock they formed in process
sion, proceeded noiselessly to the resi-
dence of Mr.. Hinsdale, and. without
waiting for any one within to open

Mr.. EDITOR: In justice TO Mr.. Head,
| wish to state that he disclaims all per-
sonal efforts to influence the vote on the
appointment of Treasurer, and was
sustained by the prompt vote of every
member of the Board. So, as the mat
ter stands, the Board made their choice
Without any influence whatever, select
ing the young man, Mr. F. G. Head,
over and above every soldier named, as
being the most worthy of their approval,
and sealed their action by second APP
polntment and unanimous vote, in
GLIDING the Chairman. So, Mr.. Editor,
there can be no misunderstanding their
position, there being full opportunity for
reflection, and their choice reached after
careful consideration.
Yours, z. G. SIMMONS.

UNNECESSARY WAR ALARM

UNNECESSARY WAR ALARM.
Notes of warning have appeared in
Chicago papers of the exposed condi-
ton of that city in the event of hostil-
tiles with England, growing out of the
fishery question. 1t is said single
iron.clad vessel at anchor off Chicago
could easily wipe out the whole city,
destitute as it is of adequate defenses.
So also every city on the western shore
of Lake Michigan could be quickly de-
stroyed by war vessel on the lake.
This may all be true, but the probable
tiles are too remote to justify alarm.
The dreaded war vessels are far off
and cannot be gotten into the great
western lakes from the ocean except
through the Welland canal. Besides,
by the treaty with Great Britain, bat
one equipped vessel is allowed to each
of the powers on the lakes between
the United States and Canada. At
tempts to brighten the people on the
borders of the great lakes. that their
lives and property are in danger, are I'M
called for in the present state of our
relations with England or any foreign
power.
There is latent war spirit in this
country that would delight in war
with England, and is busy in magni-
flying the differences between the two
countries. England has thus far man.
ifested no war-like demonstrations, nor
has this government signlfied dispo-
sition to settle differences by resort

STATE LEGISLATURE.

About the usual number of bills
have been introduced in the State leg
islature at this session as in former
sessions during the same period.
Among these bills are some Of merit
which would prove advantageous,
should they be enacted into laws. AS
in former sessions, probably the great
proportion of the proposed enact
ments now before the legislature will
never pass to a third reading.

Governor Rusk made some very sem
sible and patriotic remarks in his late
message-so much so that they have
called out many well-merited compli-
ments from papers in other states.
The later ocean devotes nearly
column of comments highly commend
atory. Several leading New York pa
pers have also commented in similar
style, and his course in the Milwaukee
riots is spoken of approvingly. No
body finds fault, except those whom
his policy hurts.

FRIDAY, FEBRUARY II. 1887.

A service was held in Lambeth Pal

memorate the conservation of the first
Bishops of the Episcopal church Of
America in 1887, just one hundred
years ago. Two American Bishops
were present.

The eyes are always In sympathy with

To the gratifying surprise of the
great majority of the people of this
country the trial Of Munchrath at
Sioux City, Iowa, for the murder OF
Rev. Haddock resulted in the con-
viction of the defendant for man
slaughter. 1t is the first conviction
Of any of the eight men who were in
dicted for the cold blooded murder,
and there is good reason to believe
that the others will now suffer for
their crime. There is no doubt AZ to
the guilt of the prisoners, but they
are all wealthy, and it was deemed
impossible to gel a conviction in the
city where they lived. The murder
of Mr.. Haddocis, the prohibition lead
er, was the result Of a conspiracy of
several of the brewers and saloonkeep-
ers ofSioux City. TheAmerican jury is
again getting the confidence of the
people, as large number of great
criminals have been convicted during
the past year, among them the New
York boodler aldermen, the Chicago
boodlers, the Chicago anarchists and
now one of the murders of Haddock.
1t is an encouraging sign when
the wealthy and influential are readily
convicted for their crimes by the
luriea.
